Think the last thing we all want to do when were old and no longer boating is to think back about the trips that we skipped. I try my best to make it to most events except the inlaw reunions

oh-that drive--going up is a short trip-one stop for gas and two for pee. now that trip home is a long ass drive that about the only thing I look forwards to is crawling into my own bed and passing out completely wore out from a great trip.

Ed, you're overthinking the camping. The islands are large and will probably be empty after the July 4th weekend. There is also plenty of undeveloped shoreline, woods across the road from my house and my neighbor's yards. You can't camp in my yard due to the potential of the "pooping in a hole" you keep talking about.

Thanks Drew The Supra will be out and ready by then. I wouldn't want to stick out with a off brand of boat . Best to let Sups and Mooms stick together. Are there any campgrounds in the area preferably with lake access?

AGH! It sounds like a great time. I'll be out of state during that time dagnabbit...

The wife and I will be on our annual pilgrimage to visit relatives.
We schedule it around when her brothers are also out visiting so we can escape from her parents when they are distracted by her brothers
It is sort of an informal rotation, one family gets sacrificed while the others escape for awhile, but eventually our turn comes up and we must endure...

Oh well, we will get to spend some time in Yellowstone so it's not all bad

This is hilarious. It's exactly what we do when my Dad is around. He loves to talk and the more he drinks the more he talks. And, he's an expert on everything. So we take turns listening and yawning for 20-30 min at a time then rotate out. He just keeps on going on and on and on and on and on . . .

Campgrounds are tough as I don't think they are real close to us and/or have ramps. Local hotels on the West side of the lake are close to public ramps and town of Milledgeville, but better for hanging out with all of us are the condos at Lake Sinclair Villages. Older, but mostly remodeled and in good shape with a ramp on site, assigned slip, etc. for same, or less, than a hotel room. Here is an example:
